The Kravis-de Roulet Leadership conference, which began in 1990, is an annual leadership conference funded jointly by an endowment from Henry R. Kravis and the de Roulet family. This perpetual funding, along with additional support from the Kravis Leadership Institute and Claremont McKenna College, enables us to attract the finest leadership scholars and practitioners as conference presenters and participants. The 15th annual Kravis-de Roulet Conference, Best Practices in Leadership, was held February 25–26, 2005.
